New Dolmar 7910 Chainsaw

Just loving the new Dolmar 80cc 7910 chainsaw.... Having just done my CS32 qualifications the chainsaw was awesome... It chewed through the tree trunks like it was going out of fashion... It was a bit heavy when throwing it about for snedding and a 60cc Dolmar 6100 might be better for doing that... But I guess that I will have to just get used to it and toughen up..? Can't wait to get on the next courses... Windblown & Uprooted.... And Emergancy Tree Works

Bob's library

Welcome 🤗   I decided to create a blog where I can put useful information for those who are interested in accessing info that Mainstream Media censor and don't want you to know. All I want to do is give the opportunity for those who don't have the time to trawl through the huge mountain of sites, where there is either confusing or conflicting 'facts'. It's taken me many years to open my eyes to the world I thought I knew through a long and time consuming process. Sometimes ignorance is

Metrics to Help Your Tree Care Company

Even when it comes to the tree care industry, numbers are important.  If you don’t see the numbers, or the impact they have on your tree care business, you could be missing growth opportunities.  Return on Marketing Stop and ask how new clients are finding out about you.  Did they come from past clients, new referrals, radio ads, yard signage, billboard adds, or social media for example?  It’s simple; whenever you get a new call always ask, “Well, how did yo

Stihl 075

Now i know many have posted on the 075..truth is i am not interested in anything other than a great saw for milling...with a Alaskan mill...i have found what seems to be a 075 in excellent condition for 700$..and i'm still sketchy...being this sight has the absolute most up to date professionals and users of these saws...i would very much appreciate any personal experience and or opinions on whether or not to buy a old used supposedly excellent shape...saw...is it worth the risk...??

No wood🙁

I joined a month ago now, & not had a single call or msg. Does it usually take some time before someone would make contact, or is it that there are too many established tip sites in my area? Any advice welcome.

How's the 500i working out for you

So after all the hype, how are people getting on with the 500i (if you've gone and got one)?   I've had min for a week now and I am super impressed and could easily throw it around all day without fatigue with some brilliant power.  I would say that whilst people have compared it to the 661, it's not as powerful and for me won't replace it but instead compliment it.

What should you have at the top of your Tree Shopping List?!

What should you have at the top of your Shopping List when you are sourcing trees from any UK nursery?!   Answer:-   Ask the Supplier for a copy of their Biosecurity Policy.  They should be able to give you a unique reference number per tree from which an audit trail will verify from where the tree was sourced and how long it has been in the UK.   Trees imported into the UK should have at least one full year - all the growing seasons - on a UK nursery to ensure any
